"Do you feel me now?" sings Britney Spears in her song *Toxic*, and she stands as a symbolic figure at the heart of the exhibition by Julie Legouez, Evelina Reiter, and Shona Stark. Spears embodies the multifaceted aspects of female representation. In a world where media and public perception heavily influence how women are viewed, this exhibition offers a platform for reflection and interpretation of the deeply ingrained prejudices against women.

The artworks in the exhibition *Do you feel me now?* illuminate the complex connections between women, their identity, and how they are represented in the media. The exhibition invites visitors to delve deeply into these themes and develop a broader understanding of the power of images and narratives that shape our perceptions.

EXHIBITION Female Gaze & Power

The exhibition "Female Gaze & Power – Women's* Networks in Visual Arts" was initiated as part of the "Mind the Mycelium" festival to mark the 40th anniversary of the Bremen Women's Artists' Association, GEDOK, and aims to explore and present the diverse perspectives of the "Female Gaze" as well as the significant strength of women's* networks in the art scene.

The "Female Gaze" describes the perspective of how women*—and the world around them—are viewed, not through a cis-male lens. This approach does not focus on the superficial objectification of individuals but strives for a diverse portrayal, not solely centered on the body. Above all, it raises an essential question that has often been neglected in the past: What do women* want to see?

This exhibition promises a meaningful reflection on the female perspective in art and the solidarity of women's* networks. Syker Vorwerk invites art lovers to participate in this inspiring event and to celebrate the artistic diversity, as well as the importance of collaboration and support, within the art world.

The "Fight or Flight" exhibition invites you to engage with the theme of fear and explore possible solutions. Curated by Julie Legouez and Evelina Reiter, this exhibition focuses exclusively on the perspective of FLINTA* individuals.

At its core, the exhibition addresses the challenges currently and potentially faced by FLINTA persons and how these fears can be collectively overcome. Through artistic works and interactive programs, "Fight or Flight" provides a space for reflection and exchange.

The exhibition includes various program points, such as voice coaching, a self-defense course, a concert by the electro-punk band "Kitty and the Cat," and an artist talk with a tour of the exhibition.
